What are the causes of polycystic kidney disease

summary

Lao Wang's son next door was found to be polycystic kidney, and now it's very serious. It's probably caused by heredity, so we must treat it quickly. The doctor said that we should have surgery, so that it can be more effective. Let's talk about the causes of polycystic kidney!

What are the causes of polycystic kidney disease

Reason one: toxins. It is also a common cause of polycystic kidney disease. Toxin may cause a lot of cell and tissue damage in the human body, and even endanger life in serious cases. It is also one of the main reasons for gene mutation, congenital dysplasia and other phenomena. Common toxins such as pesticides, certain chemicals, radiation, pollution, etc. In particular, it should be pointed out that some drugs also have nephrotoxicity, if used improperly, it is easy to cause renal damage.

Reason 2: gene mutation is not hereditary: for polycystic kidney disease, it is mostly inherited by parents, which is divided into autosomal dominant inheritance and autosomal recessive inheritance. However, some patients with polycystic kidney disease are neither inherited by parents, nor belong to congenital dysplastic polycystic kidney disease, but gene mutation during embryo formation. In the process of embryo formation, due to the role of various factors, gene mutation, the formation of polycystic kidney disease, although this situation is rare, but it can still occur, therefore, some patients with polycystic kidney disease may not have a parental genetic history. This is a common cause of polycystic kidney disease.

The third reason: all kinds of infection: infection can cause abnormal changes in the internal environment of the organism, thus creating environmental conditions conducive to the genetic changes of cysts, enhancing the activity of internal factors of cysts, thus promoting the formation and growth of cysts; No matter it is a common infection of the skin, urinary tract, or respiratory tract, it can have a great impact.

matters needing attention

The earlier the treatment of polycystic kidney, the better the effect. When there is no damage to renal function, effective treatment is the best period. Early elimination of cysts or control of the development of cysts can completely avoid the occurrence of renal insufficiency or uremia, in order to avoid more serious, patients will be more uncomfortable, treatment will be more difficult.
